I am pretty much at my wits end taking apart switches and grinding plastic off that keeps blocking the contacts from touching. Given that my passenger window switch has kicked the bucket officially, and there is no more plastic to grind, I figure why the hell not try some cheapo ebay switches that are probably from China and see how they work for a while.

Once they come in, I'll post more on how they function. Can't be worse than having to take a switch apart to fix it everytime I drive my car to get the windows down so it doesn't smell like used gym T-shirts inside the car.

We sell the good OEM switches for $33 each - never had an issue with them.
Even Porsche is only $66.

I can do cheap for $24 and they look pretty good quality.

Scuse my ignorance, but is there a lighted switch option out there, or has it just been so long since I drove my lawn ornament that I don't remember that they do light up?

OE window switches don't illuminate.

Hey Roger, if the switches break, I'll be putting an order in for REAL SWITCHES through you. I figure I'd fudge around with these for the moment until destruction due to wear and tear, heat, misuse, acts of God, Chinese quality, or hanky panky on the console.

How you figger these are knockoffs? Looks like they're being sold as OEM.

I've replaced a too many of these cheap window switches it's not even amusing. Tried a set in my own car a couple years back and one didn't work unless you pressed ultra hard and the other wore out in a month.

Don't toss your money away.

Mongo

Because their paypal name starts with "ASIANA".

$40 I can toss away for now; Heck I"ll even dissect them later so ya'll can see never to buy German parts from the far east while eating Panda Express. Oh the irony that post will be.

James Bailey

Is Panda Express Asian food ??

Mongo

Only if an Asian makes it

Tony

Tony,
Do you have a write up for this mod. I'm not keen on it, but I have a friend who wants to do a mod like this.

I wish we hand a wind up window option.
